Petplan protects all of your pet’s teeth (every adult tooth—not just the canines) from accidents, illnesses, injuries and diseases, with no broad condition exclusions.
Pumpkin’s limited coverage does not cover endodontic or orthodontic dental services such as caps, crowns, crown amputation, fillings, implants, or root canals.
You can’t predict when your pet will need care, which is why Petplan is always available. Between our app, live chat and agents, you’ll get you the help you need seven days a week.
Pumpkin is only available Monday through Friday 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. EST. They also don’t offer live chat and you could get stuck waiting for them to respond to your email – time that your pet might not have.
Snap photos of your documents, send them to us and we’ll do the rest. If you need help, get it 24/7 from our helpful chatbot Leo.
Pumpkin does not have a dedicated app. You need to scan documents and upload them via their website.
We’re not just here for your pet—should you require hospitalization for 4 days or more, we’ll cover up to $1,000 of your pet’s boarding fees.
Pumpkin doesn’t cover this, so you’ll need to find someone to take care of your pet or incur expensive boarding fees.
With Petplan, you have the freedom to customize a price that fits with your budget.
Pumpkin only gives you three deductible choices: $100, $250 and $500.
